The Era of Gods

Chapter 411 -411: A Special Offer

Fortunately, although he could not receive the guard team and the Void Battleship, his other benefits remained unchanged; the small courtyard covering ten thousand square feet within the Yan Huang Number Five Super War Fortress was already his, complete with basic staff.

Like the guard team and the Void Battleship, this courtyard was a luxury that only a general could enjoy. As long as he didn’t get transferred, the place would continue to be his.

In the following time, he spent most of his days in this small courtyard, mostly entering the Divine Realm each day, experiencing the laws he controlled as Commander Xie had suggested, and trying to master them as quickly as possible.

Although most True Gods could not sense the Ancient God’s Divinity, even during the award ceremony where several powerful divine forces were present, only a few noticed anything, it was still best to keep such things known to as few people as possible. It was advisable to keep a low profile before growing stronger to avoid any jealous schemes.

During this month, he didn’t spend all his days here. Aside from occasionally receiving various offers for the authority he held, relayed through Commander Xie, he also visited the headquarters of the Furious Flame Battalion. This was because official military orders had come through, and he had to formally take office.

Although he was only an acting battalion commander and didn’t plan to manage affairs personally, the process still had to be followed.

Upon his formal appointment as battalion commander, he didn’t involve himself in the affairs, but he was still able to easily access information about the Furious Flame Battalion and learned about the specific strength of this powerful unit.

If all battalions were divided into five tiers, the Furious Flame Battalion would be in the third tier, belonging to a middle level – neither good nor bad.

The lowest, one-star battalions, belonged to local forces, generally stationed at bases on planes that had been conquered already or served as garrison troops with average combat power. The strongest individual, usually the battalion commander, typically had a God Level between Level 5 and Level 9 and possessed Weak Divine Power; it was very rare for them to have Medium Divine Power.

Two-star battalions were slightly stronger, but they still served as garrison troops or were stationed units, occasionally assisting the main force in operations. However, the places they guarded tended to be more important, with the strongest usually having a God Level ranging from Level 10 to Level 14 and possessing Medium Divine Power.

Three-star battalions, like the Furious Flame Battalion, generally were regular expeditionary units in charge of frontal assaults and conquering Foreign Dimensions and Aboriginal Gods Nations. Their strongest personnel similarly possessed Medium Divine Power, but such battalions typically had multiple individuals with Medium Divine Power, more beings above True God level, and a generally stronger average capability.

Four-star battalions were the absolute main forces of any military zone. Although these battalions did not have Powerful Divine Power, they had more than ten individuals with Medium Divine Power. Key to their strength was their ability to resist ordinary Powerful Divine Power—not necessarily to win, but at least to hold their ground.

Only five-star ace battalions could defeat Powerful Divine Power. These top-tier battalions had at least one individual with Powerful Divine Power, capable of directly attacking a Different Domain possessing such divine strength.

There were very few such top-tier battalions; even the Yan Huang Number Five War Zone only had two, and their battalion commanders held a higher status than some ordinary Expeditionary Army legion commanders.

The Furious Flame Battalion, ranked in the third tier, was neither high nor low, definitely better than any battalion he might have created himself.

Without realizing, a month had passed, and Commander Xie, upon seeing him again, nodded and said,

“The remnant fluctuations of Ancient God laws on you have disappeared. You can now appear in front of everyone, and also, I have received a new special offer for the sale of your authority. I think it’s very good; take a look.”

As he spoke, a holographic screen poured down in front of Lin Xiao, lighting up to display an offer.

It was from an unknown patron, unsigned, with no clue to which power it belonged.

Over the last month, he had entrusted Commander Xie to help receive offers from various big players; now, a total of thirty-seven offers had been received.

It may not seem like many, but these were the offers from individuals at or close to God Level 19—big players who were even among the strongest in the realm of Powerful Divine Power dared to make an offer; ordinary Powerful Divine Powers didn’t have the capacity to compete.

In other words, there probably weren’t more Transcendent Divine Powers at the pinnacle of True God in the Main World.

The offers from these big players were dazzling, leaving him unsure how to choose.

They were more or less offering the same thing – Ancient Treasures, planes, Divinity, Divine Artifacts, rare treasures, and an immense amount of resources.

But then again, what they could offer was limited to these things; it was just a matter of quality.

This special offer that Commander Xie mentioned included only one item: ‘plane,’ but the plane he offered was extraordinary.

The planes offered by others were typically a single large plane, or part of a large plane, or a group of planes of various sizes constituting a plane cluster, and so on.

Note that the planes used for trading were all teeming with active Elements, and possessed Superhuman Power with Wise Species capable of providing a vast amount of Power of Faith and suitable for Divine Enthronement. Many of these planes had Humans as the main species, which are more valuable than those uncivilized planes.

Most of these planes had already been conquered; now, all that remained was to receive ongoing faith power and Plane Origin, naturally including the resources within the planes.

The most valuable among them was a large plane with common different-domain Races like Humans, Elves, Dwarves, where faith had been unified; just by taking over, he could reap a continual flow of Faith Power, enough to support ten guard teams and more.

Lin Xiao had previously been somewhat interested in this plane, but upon seeing the new offer Commander Xie sent, he hesitated.

The new quote contains nothing but this one plane.

No, to be precise, it’s a Crystal Wall System.

A small Crystal Wall Universe, consisting of a single large plane and about a dozen medium and small planes.

The data showed that the interior space of this small Crystal Wall Universe is roughly the size of a complete Solar System.

Note that the complete Solar System here refers to the system including the Kuiper Asteroid Belt beyond the galaxy’s gravitational well and the Oort Cloud made up of countless dust clouds, with a maximum radius of about one light-year.

One light-year is an astronomical unit of measurement, but for a Crystal Wall Universe, that’s quite small.

Such a small Crystal Wall Universe could never sustain a great divine power, and even conquering it wouldn’t have much value.

Small Crystal Wall Universes like this one are quite numerous in the Chaotic Void Sea, and the reason this one was chosen to trade with him is because its main plane has already given birth to intelligent species, possessing superhuman power, and most crucially, the Crystal Wall Universe has already produced the rudiments of the Crystal Wall Will, which can continuously generate Crystal Wall Origin.

Small Crystal Wall Universes are quite numerous in the Chaotic Void Sea, but almost the vast majority have no intelligent life inside, or to be blunt, have not spawned life at all, let alone superhuman power and the rudiments of the Crystal Wall Will, hence they are worthless, and even a hundred of them would be of no use.

But since this small Crystal Wall Universe has already given birth to the rudiments of the Crystal Wall Will, it has tremendous value, with intelligent life and superhuman power you can become divine, and the birth of the Crystal Wall Will coincides with the emergence of the basic underlying laws, although they are weak, they indeed exist.

Furthermore, theoretically, the more and stronger creatures inside the Crystal Wall, the stronger the Crystal Wall Will becomes. If the creatures within the Crystal Wall are fortunate enough to step out of their universe and begin to conquer and plunder resources and the Power of Laws from other universes, it’s not impossible to nurture the universe into one of those powerful Crystal Wall Universes.

But theory is, after all, just theory – it can work, but the time span…… powerful divine powers can’t wait that long.

With time spans of tens of millions to hundreds of millions of years, powerful divine powers cannot wait that long.

So for super divine powers aspiring to take that step, this thing is like chicken ribs, an expectation of little value, but to an ordinary True God, it’s a great asset, at least for Lin Xiao it is.

Although this was the only item in the quote, Lin Xiao took a liking to it at first glance and made up his mind.

After conveying his decision to Commander Xie, he said with a laugh:

“A wise decision. No matter how small a Crystal Wall Universe is, it is still a universe. It may be of little value to me, but for you, it’s a great asset, not inferior to this privilege. Manage it well, and it will certainly help you step into powerful divine power as you ascend in your divinity level.”

“Moreover, compared to the exaggerated resources of other quotes, this one is relatively low-key. With the face of this commander, no one will covet your property.”

Lin Xiao gratefully said:

“Thank you, Commander, may I know how the trade will proceed?”

Commander Xie replied:

“If you are sure, I will send him the information right away, and the trade can be completed within the day.”

“I’m sure this is the one.”

“Well then, I will pass the message of your confirmation to all bidders.”

It was said to be within the day, but in reality, the bidders were even more anxious than he was. In less than half an hour, Lin Xiao was taken by an incarnation of Commander Xie, leaving the fortress through a Transboundary Transmission Array, and to his surprise, that Crystal Wall Universe actually had a Transboundary Transmission Array directly connected to Yan Huang No. 5 Fortress.

However, the transmission time was surprisingly long; even with the authority of Commander Xie to speed up the transmission, it took him a full three and a half months to complete the process, indicating the small Crystal Wall Universe was quite far from the Main World.

When they emerged from the void, the space in front of them contained nothing but swirling Chaos Energy, until Commander Xie sent out a signal. In the distant part of the void ravaged by a Chaos Storm, a figure appeared out of thin air; the Crystal Wall Universe was actually hidden.

Following the guiding light, they quickly flew towards the rift torn open in the storm of Chaos Energy, and suddenly, the space opened up before their eyes. Inside the violently churning Chaos Storm was a calm void, where a blue orb, not very large, hung silently, with transparent blue flames dancing like fire.

This was a vibrant and relatively young Crystal Wall Universe, not long formed, with abundant life inside, active elemental energy, and although the Crystal Wall Will was not yet fully developed, it was filled with vigorous power.

Clearly, the Crystal Wall Universe had been managed well previously; it’s likely the mysterious powerhouse was planning to cultivate it thoroughly, but now seeing a better opportunity, naturally had no interest in spending tens of millions of years here.
